[QUOTE="Bagadeez04, post: 433602, member: 2104"] Mario Williams will get a $100 million contract. Ted is never going to shell out that kind of cash...and dude, everyone knows this. So why post about it? What we need to hope for is that teams are going after other positions in the draft, and a solid pass rusher winds up being good value when we pick. At least a couple teams (Bills, Dolphins) are switching to a 4-3, which is a good thing for the Packers draft-wise. But as Packer fans we should all know what TT will do in FA...nothing. He will hope that guys like So'Oto, Lattimore and Neal make big improvements in the off-season...and he will add guys in the draft. I think Ted has done a great job as GM overall, though I don't quite understand why he seems to detest free agency. I don't believe it's worth it these days to shell out $100 million contracts to guys, or to severely overpay for guys...but there are deals to be had out there IMO (Chris Canty for instance a couple years ago)...and he just doesn't seem interested. But he's the guy who's got the Super Bowl win under his belt, and I trust him to do business the way he sees fit. [/QUOTE]
